Time passed little by little, seeing that the sun was about to set, Li Jinche had already returned with a rich harvest of prey, but the prince was still nowhere to be seen.

Gu Yunji's eyebrows were filled with worry: "His Royal Highness King Wu has been back for half an hour, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hasn't come back yet, but what happened to delay?" Do you want to send someone to look for it?"

Emperor Jingfeng glanced at the sky, and he couldn't sit still: "I have to send someone to look for it, if I don't come back after dark, then it's troublesome, the Praetorian Guards......

"Your Majesty—Oh no, Your Majesty!"

Before Emperor Jingfeng finished speaking, he saw a guard galloping on a horse in the distance, and before he could get closer, the guard turned over in a hurry, and fell on the spot, embarrassed.

He didn't bother to tidy up his clothes, and ran to Emperor Jingfeng half-crawling and half-rolling, his face full of tears: "Your Majesty is not good, the prince, the prince...... He ......"

The guards were so panicked that they could hardly speak, and without saying a word, they knocked their heads on the ground.

Emperor Jingfeng's heart jumped, and a bad premonition rose, and he shouted, "What's wrong with the prince, tell me quickly!"

The guard choked up and said, "...... Half an hour ago, my subordinates followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to hunt, and a tiger came out of nowhere, which frightened us into scattering and fled, and when the tiger ran away, His Highness was gone...... My subordinates searched in the forest for a long time, but they still couldn't find it, so they came back and reported it......

"What? The prince is lost?!"

Emperor Jingfeng was stunned for a moment, and then became furious: "I asked you to protect the prince, but you lost the prince!" Such a big forest, the prince is alone in it, what if there are three long and two short? And the Hunting Ground Supervisor, what are you eating, how can a tiger run out of the Royal Hunting Ground!"

In order to ensure safety, the royal hunting grounds were cleaned up in advance, and there were fences all around, and there were basically only some deer, rabbits and other animals in them, and there could be no large beasts, so Emperor Jingfeng dared to let Li Jinze take a small number of people and horses to hunt.

Gu Yunji was also taken aback, and asked urgently, "The tiger suddenly rushed out, is His Highness injured?"

「…… At that time, the tiger flew suddenly, and a group of people were too conspicuous together, so we had to scatter and flee in order to avoid the tiger...... I didn't run in the same direction with His Highness, I don't know what His Highness's situation is...... I don't know which side the tiger chased in the end......

The guard said intermittently, knowing that he was guilty, and blood came out of his forehead: "My subordinates should die! Subordinates damn it! Damn ...... subordinates."

Hearing this, Gu Yunji's heart was half cold.

The beast is very invincible, Li Jinze is just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, even if he has practiced martial arts, but the three-legged cat kung fu is not enough to see. He was left alone in the woods, and if he was unlucky enough to meet a tiger, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Come, take him down!"

Emperor Jingfeng was in a state of confusion, and wanted to immediately behead the guards to vent his anger, but he knew that now was not the time to be held accountable, so he had to first let the weeping guards be escorted down, and then summoned the commander of the Praetorian Guard:

"Immediately organize all the forbidden troops and guards, leave the necessary guards in the camp, and send out all the rest, and be sure to find the prince before dark!"

"Yes!"

After the forbidden army was dispatched, not long after, someone reported: "Your Majesty, I found blood stains in the southeast of the forest, and the traces stretched to the depths of the dense forest.

Hearing this, everyone's faces changed, and Li Jinche deliberately exclaimed, "Bloodstains? Oh! He hasn't found the emperor's eldest brother for so long, so it won't be his ......."

Before Li Jinche finished speaking, he saw Emperor Jingfeng stand up suddenly, and his whole body was depressed, so frightened that he immediately stopped talking.

Emperor Jingfeng's lips were a little pale, and his face was extremely ugly: "Prepare the horse, I want to go and see it myself."

……

When everyone came to the place that the forbidden army had said, they found intermittent blood stains on the ground, stretching into the depths of the dense forest, and judging from the lodging of weeds and shrubs along the road, it was obvious that something had been dragged out.

When everyone saw this, their expressions were different for a while,

Emperor Jingfeng took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and said in a deep voice, "...... Go, follow the blood, and see what it is."

After looking for it for a long time, the guard who opened the way in front of him shouted, "Found it!"

Everyone instantly tightened their scalps, walked over to take a look, and then found that it was a dead deer, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "It turned out to be a dead deer, it scared me to death......

Gu Yunji noticed that something was wrong, and stepped forward to take a closer look: "...... The wound of this deer is so big, and the internal organs are almost empty, it doesn't look like it was caused by a bow and arrow, but most of them were killed by a fierce beast."

The faces of several timid ministers turned pale, and their voices trembled: "Is it possible...... Is there a tiger?"

The commander of the forbidden army also looked at the dead deer carefully, nodded and said, "Yes, it is true. It's just that the beast eats its prey, and it usually starts with the internal organs, and then the body, and if the tiger is hungry, it must have eaten the deer cleanly, and there can't be so much left."

"Looking at it like this, it's like eating and eating, and being forced to stop when you meet something......

The commander of the forbidden army pondered for a while, his face was solemn, and he said to Emperor Jingfeng: "Your Majesty, there may really be a tiger hiding in this forest, and now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is missing, and Your Majesty can't have any more accidents. For the sake of Your Majesty's safety, I would like to ask you to return to the camp first......

At this time, Gu Yunji moved his nose and suddenly smelled an inexplicable fishy wind. His face changed suddenly, and a huge sense of crisis rose in his heart, and before he could react, he heard a tiger roar that shook the sky, and a huge tiger rushed out from not far away.

"Old ...... Old Tiger! There are tigers!"

"Run!"

"Help! The tiger is coming—"

Seeing this, the crowd was shocked, and several officials were so frightened that they collapsed on the ground, and their bodies were so weak that they couldn't exert themselves, crying and shouting, and running out with rolling belts, and the scene became chaotic for a while.

Gu Yunji shouted hoarsely, "Don't mess up! Protect Your Majesty—"

As he spoke, he came to Emperor Jingfeng, who was still stunned, grabbed his arm and pulled him back: "Your Majesty, go quickly!"

Emperor Jingfeng came back to his senses suddenly, didn't think too much, and staggered back with Gu Yunji. At the same time, some of the guards of the Forbidden Army reacted and immediately formed a wall in front of the tiger to cover everyone's departure.

However, the tiger was extremely ferocious, and with one leap, several guards were scattered, and its claws as heavy as a thousand pounds just stepped on the chest of one of the guards, and the guards spat blood on the spot, and they were silent.

Rao is forbidden army guards have been honed in the school field for a long time, and they are familiar with the fighting routines between people, but they have never seen such a tragic scene of such fierce beasts hurting people. The two forces were trembling for a while, and they wanted to turn around and flee first, but they took into account Emperor Jingfeng and the ministers behind him, so they had to muster up the courage to meet them.

Perhaps it was Emperor Jingfeng's yellow dragon robe that was particularly conspicuous, and after the tiger broke up the guards' defensive line, he went straight to Emperor Jingfeng.

Emperor Jingfeng and Gu Yunji were anxious in their hearts, and they tried their best to run out, but they only had two legs, no matter how fast they ran, they were chased by the tiger in three or two jumps.

The more anxious Emperor Jingfeng became, the more panicked he became, only to feel that his legs were too weak to be strong, and he stumbled under his feet and fell directly to the ground.

The tiger chased in front of him in an instant, seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Emperor Jingfeng's face was colorless, he couldn't stop trembling, and closed his eyes as if he was fated.
